Hi. I think there is a lack of precision in the text of your GR that I find highly problematic. I suspect it will be fairly easy for you to correct this and possibly even gain my support, so I'd ask you to look for ways to do so.
You say that the WHO has declared Covid-19 to be a pandemic, and has not lifted that declaration. I doubt they ever will. I think that covid-19 will always have been a pandemic. The interesting thing is what the WHO says about travel and minimizing international travel. so, I'd ask you to 1) focus on recommendations about travel rather than focusing on whether Covid-19 is or is not a pandemic. 2) cite specific recommendations on travel as reasons not to have a conference. 3) If you cannot easily find specific recommendations against travel to conferences, then do significantly more leg work justifying your position. Thanks, --Sam
